BACKGROUND

1. Technical Field

The disclosure relates to a buttstock, and particularly relates to abuttstock having an automated external defibrillator assembled therein.

2. Related Art

In order to survive and have a peaceful life territory, ancient peopleneeded weapons, such as sharpened stones, pointed trenches, or eventheir fists, as tools to fight nature in order to obtain food,necessities, or to overcome threats from wild animals. As a result ofhuman evolution and technological development, people have producednumerous kinds of shotguns with which to catch the prey efficiently,thereby achieving a multipurpose of survival as well as living space forgroups and economic security.

Today, the shotgun is no longer confined to the hunter; many people,especially those in the upper classes, regard hunting as a leisureactivity with historical traditions. By hunting, people can draw closeto nature, relax, and learn to respect the wonder and amazement ofnature. However, although hunting activities can add drama and interestto life, they also pose some health hazards. These risks, in addition tocommon traumas, may also include unexpected sudden cardiac death,cardiac disease resulting from age, personal history of disease, climateweathers, high strength physical activities, lack of sleep, improperdiet, or can even resulting from the intense pressure and elevatedemotion induced by opposing the hunting of animals.

If a person can have a first-aid treatment, for example, being treatedimmediately with an automated external defibrillator (hereinafter,abbreviated AED), or other auxiliary rescuing equipment, whenexperiencing sudden cardiac attack, the endangered person may be saved.The AED is a simple medical device provided mainly for non-medicalpersonnel to rescue patients in danger of sudden death from cardiacarrest. The AED can automatically detect the cardiac dysrhythmiaphenomena (including ventricular tachycardia and ventricularfibrillation), of the patient and instruct whether it is necessary toapply electroshocks to the heart of the patient. Cardiac arrestsresulting from sudden cardiac dysrhythmias can be recovered with asuccess rate of 90 percent if electroshocks are applied to the cardiacarrest patient within one minute. In the public access defibrillation(PAD) program promoted in some countries, AEDs are widely recommendedand fixedly assembled in public places. Nevertheless, due to the needfor portability, personal first aid equipment for hunting and campingactivity is quite simple and unlike the aforementioned AED equipmentwhich is really useful for rescuing dying people; additionally, campfields and hunting fields are commonly located in the out-of-way places;desolate, lacking medical resources, with poor telecommunicationsupport, and challenges predicting the weather and the traffics. Anyoneexperiencing a cardiac arrest in such a place, has little chance ofsurvival since the time required for professional first aid is too long.

According to the American Heart Association, some 360,000out-of-hospital cardiac arrests occur each year in the United States,largely involving middle-aged men, with only 9.5 percent surviving.Patients can survive if they are given cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) immediately and their hearts are jolted back into normal rhythmwith a defibrillator.

According to the American Heart Association, most sudden cardiac arrestadults are in a state of ventricular fibrillation, with their heartsceasing to pump blood. The treatment for ventricular fibrillation isusing the defibrillation and the cardioversion procedure, namely,applying electroshock to terminate the state of ventricular fibrillationand leading the heart back into normal rhythm. It is understood that thepossibility of survival decreases by about 10 percent with every minutethat the defibrillation and the cardioversion procedure is delayed.Additionally, if the patient cannot be treated properly in 4 to 6minutes, even if they can survive this cardiac arrest, their brain willsuffer unrecoverable damage which may result a persistent vegetativestate. However, it is unlikely that medical personnel can ever reach anunconscious person within a minute. Consequently, it is impossible toapply first aid procedures instantly to patients suffering cardiacdisease, due to lack of a systematic planning to redesign theimplementation methods and the structure of the AED.

The purpose of the prevent invention is to place a humane medical devicewithin a weapon, so that the guns become mobile emergency stations whichreadily accompany people in adventure sports, thereby increasing thepossibility for an AED to rescue a patient instantly.

SUMMARY

In view of this, the disclosure provides a buttstock including a mainbody and a protecting member. The main body includes a shell member andan automated external defibrillator disposed in the shell member. Theprotecting member is movably connecting with the shell member of themain body so as to move relative to the shell member between a firstposition and a second position, wherein the protecting member shieldsthe automated external defibrillator at the first position and exposesthe automated external defibrillator at the second positionrespectively.

As above, when a person suddenly suffers ventricular fibrillation orventricular tachycardia in a hunting field or a camping field, anotherperson (no matter whether their friend or rescue personnel), moves theprotecting member from the first position to the second position so asto expose and operate the AED immediately, for applying electroshock tothe patient's heart, and follows by applying the external cardiacmassage procedures or other cardiopulmonary resuscitation procedures togive the patient first aid treatment, under which circumstances, thepatient's likelihood of survival increases significantly due to propertreatment being applied to the patient before arriving in the emergencyroom. Furthermore, when the AED is not in use, the protecting member canbe moved to the first position so as to protect the AED appropriatelywithout affecting the use of the gun.

The buttstock 100 includesa main body 20 and a protecting member 30. The buttstock 100 can becombined with a barrel 10 to form a gun, such as a shotgun (as shown inFIG. 3), but not limited thereto; the gun can also be a toy gun, apaintball gun or other types of guns. Additionally, in this embodiment,the protecting member 30 can be moved relative to the barrel 10. Theprotecting member 30 has a cross section approximately formed asU-shaped; that is, the protecting member 30 has a top face 30 a and twoside faces 30 b connected to the top face 30 a in which the two sidefaces 30 b are opposite to each other.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2A, in which the main body 20 includes ashell member 21 and an automated external defibrillator 22 (hereinafter,abbreviated AED 22). The AED 22 is disposed in the shell member 21 andcapable of outputting an electroshock signal to an electroshock point,for example, the breast region or some particular belly regions, of apatient's heart. Accordingly, the electroshock signal from the AED 22can stop the irregular heartbeat; meanwhile, the patient's heart isjolted back into normal rhythm with the cardiopulmonary resuscitation(CPR) procedure. In this embodiment, the AED 22 and the shell member 21are manufactured separately with the AED 22 being received in the shellmember 21, but embodiments are not limited thereto; in someimplementation aspects, the shell member 21 and the AED 22 areintegrally formed as a whole; in some implementation aspects, an elasticbuffer member (not shown), is disposed between the shell member 21 andthe AED 22 so as to absorb the impact upon shooting the gun and protectthe electric components inside the AED 22 from damaging due to theimpact, thereby the AED 22 can be operated normally and saving thepatient's life.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2A again, in which the protecting member30 is movably connecting with the shell member 21 of the main body 20 soas to move relative to the shell member 21 between a first position anda second position, wherein the protecting member 30 shields the AED 22at the first position and exposes the AED 22 at the second positionrespectively. In this embodiment, the protecting member 30 issubstantially the casing of the shell member 21 and can be made ofmetal, polymeric materials, high mechanical strength plastics or othermaterials with high mechanical strength. Based on this, when the AED 22is not in use, the protecting member 30 is moved to the first positionso as to protect the AED 22 appropriately without affecting the using ofthe gun (here, when the protecting member 30 is located at the firstposition, the two side faces 30 b of the protecting member 30 areapproximately attached to the shell member 21 and shield the AED 22);when the AED 22 is required, the protecting member 30 is moved from thefirst position to the second position so as to expose the AED 22 foroperating the AED 22 conveniently (here, when the protecting member 30is located at the second position, the top face 30 a of the protectingmember 30 is disposed at a position far from the shell member 21, andmost parts of the two side faces 30 b are not attached to the shellmember 21). Additionally, in this embodiment, when a user operates thegun, a bottom plate 30 c of the protecting member 30 (that is, theportion of the protecting member 30 far from the barrel 10), is directlyabutted against the user's body. In order to retard the impact from therecoil of the gun, elastic buffering members (not shown), correspondingto the stature of the user's body can also be assembled on the bottomplate 30 c, so that a compactness between the user's body and the gun isimproved; similarly, one side face 30 b of the protecting member 30which is contacted with the cheek of the user can also have an ergonomiccheek fitting plate (not shown), assembled thereon, thereby increasingthe comfortableness of the user upon operating the gun.

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2A, in which embodiment, via a pluralityof pivoting portions 23 a protruded from the protecting member 30 and aplurality of pivoting holes 23 b opened on the shell member 21, theshell member 21 and the protecting member 30 are connected with eachother in a pivoting manner, so that the protecting member 30 isswingable relative to the shell member 21 so as to move between thefirst position and the second position. Here, the pivoting portions 23 aare protruded on one side of the protecting member 30 far from thebarrel 10 (as shown in FIG. 3), and the pivoting holes 23 b correspondto the pivoting portions 23 a and are opened on one side of the shellmember 21 far from the barrel 10. Based on this, one side of theprotecting member 30 is pivoting with one side of the shell member 21,so that the protecting member 30 is movable relative to the shell member21 so as to move between the first position and the second position, butembodiments are not limited thereto; in some implementation aspects, thepivoting portions 23 a are protruded from other portions of theprotecting member 30, and the pivoting holes 23 b are correspondinglyopened on other portions of the shell member 21; alternatively, in someimplementation aspects, the pivoting portions 23 a are disposed on theshell member 21 and the pivoting holes 23 b are opened on the protectingmember 30. Additionally, in some implementation aspects, the protectingmember 30 and the shell member 21 of the main body 20 are movablyconnected with each other via slide grooves 24 a and slide rails 24 b(as shown in FIG. 2B).

Please refer to FIG. 1 and FIG. 2A, in which in some implementationaspects, the shell member 21 further includes a positioning portion 211and the protecting member 30 further includes a limiting portion 301.The positioning portion 211 is selectively combined with or detachedfrom the limiting portion 301 so as to release the protecting member 30for moving from the first position to the second position.

Accordingly, when theAED 22 is not in use, the protecting member 30 is ensured to be securelypositioned at the first position so as to shield and protect the AED 22.Furthermore, in order to move the protecting member 30 between the firstposition and the second position conveniently, the protecting member 30further includes a poking block 32 provided for moving the protectingmember 30 conveniently. Here, the poking block 32 is disposed at oneface of the protecting member 30 corresponding to the moving directionof the protecting member 30 (that is, disposed at the outer surface ofthe top face 30 a).

Please refer to FIG. 1, FIG. 2A, FIG. 4A and FIG. 4B, in which the AED22 includes an electroshock module 221 and a control module 222. In thisembodiment, the electroshock module 221 includes a plurality ofconductive plates 2211 disposed at the outer surface of the AED 22 andelectrically connected to the control module 222 via wires (not shown).Based on this, the buttstock 100 is attached on the electroshock pointof the patient's heart upon operation, so that the conductive plates2211 are attached on the electroshock point of the patient's heart andan electroshock loop is formed between the patient's heart and the AED22, thereby the electroshock signal is delivered to the patient's heart.In other words, the conductive plates 2211 are disposed at the outersurface of the AED 22 and can be directly used to be in direct contactwith a human body without any extension or any additional conductivepad. In this embodiment, the conductive plates 2211 and the controlmodule 222 are located at different outer surfaces of the AED 22, andthe conductive plates 2211 are arranged diagonally, but embodiments arenot limited thereto.

In some implementation aspects, the AED 22 further includes aphysiological information collecting module 2213 provided for collectinga physiological information (such as, pulse, heartbeat, blood pressure,etc.), from a person's body (the person might be the patient, but notlimited thereto). For instance, the physiological information collectingmodule 2213 can be disposed in the electroshock module 221 so as toobtain the pulse or the heartbeat of the patient; or, the physiologicalinformation collecting module 2213 can also be disposed out of theelectroshock module 221 (as shown in FIG. 4A), for measuringphysiological information including aforementioned physiologicalinformation (namely, pulse and heartbeat), and other physiologicalinformation, such as temperature, oxygen concentration in the blood, andso forth.

The control module 222 is electrically connected to the electroshockmodule 221 so as to control the output of the electroshock signal or theinput of the physiological information. Here, the control module 222includes a processor (not shown), and an operating module (not shown),provided for controlling the processor. For example, in this embodiment,the operating module is a plurality of solid buttons provided formanually or automatically controlling the intensity, the frequency, theelectroshock mode, the applied times or other parameters of theelectroshock signal, or for controlling the types of the physiologicalinformation to be collected from the patient, but embodiments are notlimited thereto. In some implementation aspects, the operating modulecan be a plurality of or a single virtual buttons, solid toggles, knobsor can be a remote controller. Here, the conductive plates 2211 are madeof electrically conductive materials, such as stainless steels orconductive polymers, but embodiments are not limited thereto.
